You Are Not Alone in SOMA and That’s a Bad Thing

10. Sep, 2015

Oh man…

The radio is dead, food is running out, and the machines have started to think they are people. Underwater facility PATHOS-II has suffered an intolerable isolation and we’re going to have to make some tough decisions. What can be done? What makes sense? What is left to fight for?

Mmm…

1) Is SOMA scarier than Amnesia: The Dark Descent?
We think that SOMA is just as scary, if not even more so, but in a different fashion.

Okay, okay…

SOMA is easily the most story-heavy game we have made so far. But unlike our other titles, a major part of that story comes from simply playing the game.

Oh. Alright, that sounds pretty cool.

SOMA, from Frictional Games, creators of Amnesia: The Dark Descent, comes out September 22nd on PS4 and PC via Steam. Check out 12 minutes of gameplay we posted previously, here.

A student of games, I play a bit of everything because I like to see what’s out there. Nothing better than first hand experience when it comes to knowing about games. Current game obsession: Anything MOBA (Paragon, Battleborn, Heroes of the Storm), except, ironically, the most popular ones, LoL and DOTA2.
